    Noise Canceling Features Didn't Work

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I recently purchased these. They have a nice premium weight and feel. However, the earbuds did not fit well no matter what tips I used. Additionally, the noise-canceling features that I was looking forward to did not work as expected. I would not recommend these earbuds to others, as I believe there are better options available on the market in the same price range. It's essential to consider other options before investing in this pair of earbuds, as the overall experience can be frustrating and disappointing if the fitment and / or features do not meet your expectations.
